Description

more views of the German artillery. I have designed things so that the light IE18 (75mm) and the heavy IG33  (122mm) belong to a motorcycle regiment.  Motorcycle infantry regiments were used as fast mobile infantry between 1939-42 and one such regiment, supported by its integral artillery, was the first to fight a way over the heavily defended river Meuse in May 1940.  The men simply rode the motorbikes at top speed over a weir - effectively only foot-deep water - then dug in and held a bridgehead till the tanks arrived.

SdKfz 7 by Matchbox/Revell, iG 33 infantry gun by Caesar models, Kubelwagen and IE75 as before (Airfix/ACE) and motorcycle infantry by HaT. 1:72 throughout.

Really great diorama picture there of them all together, you did a really good work on them! :D The soldiers looks correctly painted and detailed and the guns and motorbikes are very nicely painted and weathered :)
